Celtic 4-1 Ross County
Kyogo almost gets a second goal, as the ball breaks to him in the box.
He hesitates for a second after a poor touch and then Jack Baldwin recovers to make the block.
Unlike him to not just bang that in first time.

Pat Nevin
Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveFirst of all, O'Riley nails the finish, but what about the little flicked ball by Kyogo - it is pure class.
That was absolutely brilliant. The beauty of the ball through is what gave O'Riley so much time.

But it's all about Kyogo again for me.

Matt O'Riley
I was just about to say it was very quiet...
Kyogo drops in and plays a first-time ball around the corner, and Matt O'Riley waits for the ball to sit up, and then belts it pass Ross Laidlaw.
Lovely goal.

Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC SportsoundHe's played exceptionally well. An excellent performance.
It'll be interesting to see how Reo Hatate reacts to not starting.

Martin Dowden
BBC Sport Scotland at Celtic ParkThat's a big goal for the visitors. There was a danger this game might drift away from them being 3-0 down at half-time but they deserved more from that opening 45 minutes.
It's unlikely to alter the outcome but will give them confidence for the remaining third.

Jordan White
Well, well.
Finally Ross County make use of one of their many corners.
The ball is whipped to the back post and White's header loops up over everyone and drops into the net.

Kyogo is lurking in the box, as ever, and his sweeping shot is blocked by Jack Baldwin.
Straight in the coupon for the County captain.

Ross County goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw produces two fine stops.
First he gets down to push Matt O'Riley's low shot away, then blocks Daizen Maeda's follow up.

Fairly low tempo start to the second half.
No chances. Fourth official Colin Steven seems to have been patched up.
If you've ever been stung by a wasp, you'll know its *very* painful.

Michael Stewart
Former Hearts & Hibernian midfielder on BBC SportsoundMaik Nawrocki looks much more comfortable on the ball than Carl Starfelt does.
You can imagine that might be why Brendan Rodgers wants to build with Nawrocki and is happy with Starfelt leaving.
